Re:How about the reverse quotas? (Score 1)

I don't think men are statistically better than women at all - simply look at how the average female engineering student compares to the male. True there aren't as many, but I can assure you, the average female usually does MUCH better than the male. You can continue that comparison in life after university. Now the question becomes why aren't there as many females as males in engineering? I think this is a really complex question and buried in there somewhere, I can assure you, is the parenthood problem which includes (p)maternity leave and child care. As a female engineer with a phd, I consider this to be one of the biggest issues I need to deal with. And let me assure you, my child will come before my job.
